Anti-glare film, method for producing same, and use of same

Abstract

An anti-glare film including a light reflectance of 3.8% or less and a haze of 40% or greater. A 60° gloss of the anti-glare film may be 15% or less. The anti-glare film includes a transparent substrate layer, and an anti-glare layer formed on at least one surface of the transparent substrate layer. The anti-glare layer may be a cured product of a curable composition including one or more types of a polymer component and one or more types of a curable resin precursor component, and in particular, at least two components selected from a polymer component and a curable resin precursor component can be phase separated through liquid phase spinodal decomposition. The anti-glare film has improved anti-reflection properties.

The invention claimed is: 
     
       1. A display device comprising an anti-glare film,
 wherein the display device is a display device with a medium-sized screen or a large-sized screen, 
 wherein the display device is a display device with a resolution of greater than 150 ppi and 300 ppi or less, 
 wherein the anti-glare film has a light reflectance of 3.5% or less, a haze of 50 to 70%, a 60° gloss of 12% or less, and a transmission image clarity of 8% to 50%, measured using an optical comb with a width of 0.5 mm, 
 wherein the anti-glare film comprises:
 a transparent substrate layer, and 
 an anti-glare layer formed on at least one surface of the transparent substrate layer, 
 wherein the anti-glare layer is formed of a resin composition comprising a resin component and/or particles, and 
 wherein the surface of the anti-glare layer includes recesses and protrusions formed by the phase separated structure of the resin composition, or recesses and protrusions corresponding to the shape of recesses and protrusions of the particles. 
 
 
     
     
       2. The display device according to  claim 1 ,
 wherein the anti-glare layer is a cured product of a curable composition comprising one or more polymer components and one or more curable resin precursor components. 
 
     
     
       3. The display device according to  claim 2 , wherein
 at least two components selected from the polymer component and the curable resin precursor component are able to be phase separated through liquid phase spinodal decomposition. 
 
     
     
       4. The display device according to  claim 2 , wherein
 the polymer component comprises a (meth)acrylic-based polymer optionally having a cellulose ester and/or a polymerizable group. 
 
     
     
       5. The display device according to  claim 2 , wherein
 the curable resin precursor component comprises at least one selected from a polyfunctional (meth)acrylate, epoxy (meth)acrylate, polyester (meth)acrylate, urethane (meth)acrylate, and silicone (meth)acrylate. 
 
     
     
       6. The display device according to  claim 2 , wherein
 the curable resin precursor component comprises a silica nanoparticle and/or a fluorine atom. 
 
     
     
       7. The display device according to  claim 1 , wherein the display device is an organic EL display or a liquid crystal display.
